Daaang! Killer deal on them tires.
Anyways, I think you're truck looks alright, but could look a ton better very easily and reasonably cheap. First, ditch that chrome! Do all the bumpers & logos. To make that two tone look better with the black rims, I think that's what you've gotta do. I'm not a fan of the mudflaps either, especially on the back. I took mine off right when I got my truck. For me, the only way I'd find them useful is for in the winter when snow and ice packs up on the running boards. Otherwise I don't care for em. Also, I'd say you should either black out the running boards or take them off. Yes, running boards can be kinda nice sometimes, but the truck also looks taller without em
I'd recommend cleaning up the wheel hubs too. All black including the lugs would look nicer IMO. But you're getting some new rims anyways, so as long as they're black, they should look pretty badass. And if you really get in the blackout mood..Think about tinting your tails with vht nightshades, etc.
Get plastidip crazy! Once you start I swear you can't stop..lol

I see tons of potential

Yea was thinking about dipping the whole truck white and all the chrome black with no running boards and I'm getting black rims also staying with the black wheels and no chrome and never thought about the mud flaps might take them off and c how it looks
Well its a .5 inch different then what nitto calls for its a 15 mile drive from my house to work I'm not trying to justify anything just answering questions that's asked I have stated like 10 tines I'm changing the wheels i don t feel I'm endangering anyone life u guys act like I'm running 44 boggers on a fiesta wheel it's .5 inch different at max speed of 40 average speed of 25
O sorry man i thought u was talking about those wheels I've been beat up so much about those wheels yea those spacers have me worried a bit also I have been looking at the truck all weekend thinking about taking them off I mean the are only 1/4 inch but still it makes me worry also

what sucks most about only needing 1/4 with spacers is the cost for hub-centric ones are still $200 a set. I think if it was me, when you get new rims, I'd consider new lugs (the studs not the nuts)... just because right now you have lateral sheer forces on them due to the spacer and they are only designed to provide clamping force and the hub should be taking the actual load. but that's just me.
I haven't done it on the newer f150's myself but I can't imagine its difficult. I've done it on other vehicles and it's pretty quick... looks like there is plenty of room to beat them out of there if you look at the hubs, but i'm guessing there's likely only certain areas were they won't hang up on something.
Yea I'll have to look into it there is the wheels I'm getting http://www.ntwonline.com/17X9-TYPE-8...l#.U3DsvVDD_qA
I like those wheels. to me, a small thing that is awesome is the hub cap part doesn't cover the lug nuts. the ones that do cover the lugs look fine but I don't like the idea of needing an allen wrench to change a tire.
make sure when you order them they have the correct hub bore. with the 6 on 135 bolt pattern, it likely only comes in an 87mm (ish... alot of companies do 87.1mm. my guess is that extra .1mm is to help in getting the wheel on and off the hub while sill keeping the load on the hub and not the lugs.) or you'll need rings to correct it... I've heard running the rings to correct the bore size (assuming the hub bore is larger than what you need) is completely safe and not anything like running spacers.

I think your truck looks great. Everyone has their own taste and opinions...that makes America. But some people just have to be a jackass and get attention. I bet his truck could be criticized, but folks with class don't just say everything that pops into their head.
